by Maarten Goldstein, Mar 13, 2006 7:49am PSTMan what is it with Live Arcade games? Even though it's barely different from games like Bejeweled, I think I spent over 4 hours with Jewel Quest during the weekend. I expect to get that 24 hours played achievement for Zuma any day now too. Also on FileShack

Due to the 1.21 patch not wanting to work, I had to reinstall...again.
Seriously, if I hear this guy tell me how to switch weapons again, I'm going to go postal.

Greasemonkey script useful for checking out images posted here on the shack. The script does an ajax-esque overlay for the image so you don't have to open it up in a new window, or reload the page. Handy dandy!

but I am running low on funds. Should I sell my PSP and all the crap I have with it in order to get them, is it worth it? I hardly use it anymore, thinking it was more of a passing fad, but I don't wanna regret it later on.
What do you guys think?

How do you keep Exchange from marking emails as being read when they are pushed out to your Treo? When people open up Outlook, they see the email as al ready read b/c it was pushed out to the Treo. Am I missing a settings some where that will not make it show up in Outlook that the email has been read after it was pushed out to the Treo?

I need to prettify my front yard because it's basically a wreck. It was destroyed during some foundation work last spring and it's never fully come back. I basically know what I'm going to attempt on my lawn (it was all weeds but it's got some grass now so I'm going to drop pre-emergent and hope for the best).
HOWEVER, I'm currently in the process of learning about landscaping. I'm going through seed catalogs and books, etc. but I want some really good web resources. I mean REALLY good. About.com's stuff is OK but it's not fantastic.
So, whatcha got?

It is, dare I say it, perfect. No more cluttery menus, RSS & Favorites combined into a sidebar, an Expose-like "All Windows" view, and rock solid compatibility with zero memory problems.
Highly urge windows users who haven't already, to try it: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/IE/ie7/default.mspx
For me it's undeniably ended the continuous jumping between IE6 and Firefox. It's almost as nice as Safari now :)

US Publisher Aspyr Media has abandonned the Starforce copy protection for their US release of Spellforce2 after too many complaints concerning the Starforce-infested demo released earlier.
It is not know yet wether Europe will also benefit from this move as the publishing rights for Europe lie with JoWood

Score
now I just need to get another PS2.
Also, went to the Xbox 360 Launch Party in Sydney tonight, was pretty decent. Managed to kick ass Shackbattle style in Burnout Revenge.
It has some really cool elements like moving around your UAV, the support heli, the support APC, those 3 guys you control. You can come up with some really cool strategies. It almost reminds me of XCOM in a way. The thing is that you don't really HAVE to do all this. Some level i'll leave my guys at the start and just run ahead guns blazing, dive behind some cover and take everyone out. I would like it to be so hard that it forces you do use good strategy. ANyone else feel like this.

ESPN runs a free bracket tourney ever year and they have a pretty decent system. To sign up, go to http://games.espn.go.com/tcmen/frontpage and either create an ESPN.com account or login if you have one. When it comes time to join a group, join ShackersFree, password boxcar. Get your picks in!
What do you win? Well, of course you get bragging rights. That goes with out saying. However, I want to get something for the winner. So, a mystery prize lays in wait!
jasonepowell is running a $5 bracket pool. If you want the big cash, message him. However, if you don't want to put the money down, this post is for you!

Sunday evening about 2 hours before I have to go to work I find my head spinning. I decide to call off using a sick day (my last as it turns out), and later that evening I'm shivering and dizzy as a motherfucker. Hello fever. Glad I called off.
Monday rolls around and my head is still spinning, and my fever is still making me want to die. Once again I call off and am glad I made that choice.
At midnight I crawled into bed and then woke up at around 3am; my fever had broken, but my throat is still sore (I almost cringe everytime I swallow and speaking makes me need to swallow more). I work at a call center. I have a day off tomorrow.
Note: at my job if you get a doc's note for missing more than 1 day in a row due to sickness it only counts as 1 sick day.
So, should I call off again this evening and then have myself a mini vacation? If I do I'll have been off: Sat, sun, mon, tues, wed. Keep in mind I don't give a shit about this job so getting threatened with being fired isn't a concern for me.
What do you think?

Every place i've called has informed me they won't be getting any in stock for a while. One or two online stores has them for around a thousand dollars, but i just want a regular priced xbox premium system.

If a team mate gets killed, is he removed from your choice list when picking new team mates? Do new people replace them? I'm only concerned because I don't want to get to a save point if one of my team mate dies if it means I could eventually start losing buddies.
